Wozniacki ‘nothing to prove’

Caroline Wozniacki says she will enter this year’s Australian Open without anything to prove despite having risen to the No.1 ranking in women’s tennis without winning a grand slam event.

Like Dinara Safina and Jelena Jankovic before her, Wozniacki has risen to the top without a victory in a major and has had to answer many questions about her legitimacy as a true No.1.

Facing the media today ahead of the Australian Open starting Monday, the Dane said “I’ve got great results. You don’t become No. 1 by winning small tournaments. I don’t have to prove anything.”
